They're Off!!!

Sunday the 17th saw a wet and miserable start to the day as we headed out to the races. Well actually it was a toyfair at Doncaster Racecourse. The weather from our way, Lincolnshire north to Doncaster improved as we went, but we did hear of local flooding from the folks who had to travel south to Doncaster, which could have accounted for there being quite a few empty tables.

It was a fairly busy toyfair considering its the holiday period. The Classic Range of Doctor Who figures were big sellers yet again, though mainly the 4th and 5th Doctors, (we've sold out of the 6th). The witches and fairies didn't quite manage to cast a spell over the crowds.

All in all though it was a fairly successful toyfair for ourselves and at least the journey start and end were at very relaxing times as compared to the Dalek Invasion last week at the Fleet Air Arm Museum at Yeovilton.

Oh and Doncaster racecourse do a wonderful breakfast butty!!
